Wood floor repair in Barns Green

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Wood floor repair in Barns Green without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and burns.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place

Barns Green questions

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you come to Barns Green?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Barns Green. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood

Do you need wood floor repair in Barns Green?

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Barns Green

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barns Green as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barns Green. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
